Matt Crafton earned his first career Camping World Truck Series victory on Thursday at Kentucky Speedway after NASCAR stopped the UNOH 225 five laps from the scheduled finish.
The trucks driven by Ben Kennedy, David Gilliland and John Wes Townley were involved in a wreck that resulted in damage to the catch fence in Turn 1. Kennedy’s truck lifted off the ground, slid along the top of the SAFER barrier while hitting the fence.

Kyle Busch battled with Joey Logano in the late stages of Saturday’s Quaker State 400 presented by Advance Auto Parts before taking the lead for good with 20 laps remaining, finishing 1.594 seconds ahead of Logano for his second NASCAR Sprint Cup win in the five races at Kentucky.
The battle between the two in the closing laps sent sparks flying and stamped the track’s fifth Sprint Cup Series race as the most action-packed held to date on the bumpy 1.5-mile circuit.
